Mike should be active on the forums but I think he may be a little covered up for the next couple of weeks. His username is Mike@tea


Thanks for all of the well wishes it made my day!

I was wondering if you guys were coming back...Nikki v2.0 said she saw a red Ford truck with a bussa sticker at the "usual spot" for the last week or so.

See you around!

Talked with Mike today.
Wasn't the same, but he seems like he will get the job done.
Very easy to talk with and seems like he knows what he is doing already.
Replacing Brent isn't possible but I think the new guy will work out well.
Again best of luck man, and KIT.
Feel free to send me a PM from time to time.
I am sure with the stuff we had going they might be calling you anyways, however when I told Mike my name he knew my last name without me telling him.
Guess you left him a list.
:-)

Just in time for me to finally get those heads on the car, Brent

The car, BTW, is a fugging ANIMAL.

Good luck... it's good to hear you will still be around the board.

Brent, sorry to see you leaving the area up here.... I really enjoyed working with you to get my heads. The timing is a bummer.... I was going to see if you still were willing and able to work something out to tune the car..... Oh well, best of luck to you!

Best of luck to you Brent. TEA was having a bit of a customer service problem and when you came around it seemed like all that changed overnight. I hope Mike can do half the job you were doing. I know alot of us on here appreciate all your help on the questions you have to hear day in and day out. Best of luck man, if I'm ever down in Chattanooga or you're ever up the Nashville way we'll have to get together. Been a long time since I've seen ya man (that TN Speed Sport meeting under the bridge was the last time I believe).

Maybe I should take this opportuntity to introduce myself and say Hey to the LS-1 community. I appreciate Brent's vote of confidence and hope that I can someday provide the same level of service and earn the trust of all of our customer's as he did. I know I learned a ton from him in the last couple of weeks he was here.

Looking forward to those results, how much better are they than the current LS6 heads?

I have enjoyed working with all of you and I have enjoyed working with the best cylinder head porting company in the world.

Best of luck to you, thanks for always answering all my questions, and putting up with my hard-headed-ness and my constant mind changing. Talk to ya later, Shawn
